Green Welcome

Dealership brings
its environmental
commitment to life.

L

ove of the outdoors and a commitment to the environment
are hallmarks of the Subaru brand. For example, Subaru has
built all of its cars in zero-landfill manufacturing facilities

since 2004, and Subaru of Indiana Automotive Inc. is the only U.S.
automobile-production plant to be designated a backyard wildlife
habitat by the National Wildlife Federation. The company also wins
kudos for its multi-year partnership with the National Park Foundation, the official charity of America's national parks.
In Los Angeles, the LAcarGUY family of dealerships is also pas-

sionate about the environment. Said to be the top hybrid dealer in
the U.S. and the first in the country to support the adoption of electric vehicles by offering charging stations open to the public at its
dealerships, the facilities undertake an array of environmental efforts
at dealerships and in the communities they serve, including energy
and water conservation, recycling initiatives, and carbon-footprint
reduction.
It was no surprise, then, that when the dealership's new Subaru
Pacific location in Hawthorne, CA, opened in 2016, it earned distinction as an Eco-Friendly Certified Dealer-joining the ranks of Subaru
dealers that take environmental responsibility to a new level by meeting stringent standards. A green feature that surprises car buyers
when they step into the Subaru Pacific showroom is a living wall, a
14-ft.-high vertical garden with 10 rows of planter boxes containing
120 plants, installed with the LiveWall green wall system.
